Bollywood actor Javed Jaffrey tweeted earlier in the day that he had heard about star actor Salman Khan's Rs 12 crore donation for Kerala flood relief operations, only to realize later, that he was yet to confirm the news. He had tweeted thinking that there was a high possibilty of donation of such a huge amount from Salman Khan, considering his track record of donating for social causes.

However, Jaffrey soon deleted the tweet before tweeting another message that read,"I had tweeted that I had ‘heard’ about @BeingSalmanKhan ‘s contribution. Because it was a very strong possibility given his track record, I put forward my thoughts and admiration. Taking the tweet off till I can confirm it."
